TCM has been showing CLINT EASTWOOD movies all day.  I'm sort of watching COOGAN'S BLUFF (1968) right now, which is kind of cool in a totally "not cool" politically incorrect way.   :thumbup: :teddyr: 

Do you have a favorite CLINT EASTWOOD movie?

Not really sure which is my favorite. But my sleeper pick is THUNDERBOLT & LIGHTFOOT. Solid screenplay, nice performances by Jeff Bridges and George Kennedy.

It depends on if you're talking about Eastwood as an actor or as a director. It's a tough choice either way.

As an actor I would have to say The Good, The Bad and the Ugly.

As a director I would have to say Mystic River.
Kubrick, Nolan, Tarantino, Wan, Iñárritu, Scorsese, Chaplin, Abrams, Wes Anderson, Gilliam, Kurosawa, Villeneuve - the elite



I believe in the international communist conspiracy to sap and impurify all of our precious bodily fluids.

The eiger sanction was good.  Also odd for Mr. Conservative to make a morally ambiguous movie...

Any of his Leone films. Or maybe DIRTY HARRY.

I watched a bit of all three SERGIO LEONE films yesterday afternoon, all great, yet I might be inclined to say DIRTY HARRY is my favorite.  Punk.

Yeah. DIRTY HARRY is great.
"Your a legend in your own mind."  :drink:
He blows away a bunch of punks while eating a hotdog.  :bouncegiggle:
He tortures Scorpio on a football field.  :buggedout:

I 'm watching every which way but Loose right now.

I always liked PLAY MISTY FOR ME, when Clint plays a jazz DJ ( in real life he is a jazz lover), who is stalked by a crazed fan.
Great horror movie.
the BEGUILED is a strange, creepy film.

Those are both GREAT movies! 


And I realized my favorite CLINT EASTWOOD movie would be THE OUTLAW JOSEY WALES
